This Year's Governors Ball Will Be Simple, But Elegant

The Governors Ball Will Be a Sea of Red and Gold

Last week, I gave you a sneak peek at all the delicious food that will be served at the Governors Ball, and this week I'm here to share a gallery of the look. The ball, which is being produced by Cheryl Cecchetto of Sequoia Productions, has been inspired by the fact that it's Oscars 80th anniversary. This year it's all about the gold of the Oscar and the red of the red carpet.

When I walked into the press preview, a sixth of the ballroom had been done up like it would on Oscar night. From the ceiling to the floor, not a single detail was overlooked. The ceiling was coated in glass bubbles that reflect the tiny lights, creating a starry look. The floor was coated in red carpet with gold runners, and the flowers — red roses and gold orchids — matched as well. The tables were either cozy lush velvet or cool, mirrored and sleek. The silverware was gold and the plates were clear. Mirrored walls and railings add another dimension, while mirrored tables and tufted chairs break up the space.

It's going to be a gorgeous event, fit for Hollywood's biggest night! To take a look at the entire gallery — that's just a sneak peek above! — read more.

Oh and I've included a few pics of what the ballroom looked like before they changed everything. They really do an amazing job!
